DC800
Door controller
The DC800 is a powerful and highly secure door controller that can
manage access rights for up to 1‚000 cardholders. It offers a range of
different reader options D card only‚ group code only‚ or card plus per-
sonal code. It can be connected to readers on both sides of the door to
control both entries and exits. Further‚ it includes a “door control” func-
tion D that is‚ an alarm is activated when the door is not properly closed
or is forced open.
The DC800 is designed for split-mounting. A split-mounted solution
separates the control device (i.e. the DC800) D which is mounted in a
secure area inside the building D from the card reader that is installed
outside the locked door. This protects the control device from vandal-
ism attempts and ensures that the only people who are able to program
the DC800 (add cardholders‚ change settings‚ etc.) are those who have
access to the secure area inside the building.
The DC800 provides 10 time schedules that can control when various
categories of cardholders are allowed access through the door D that is‚
cards can be programmed to provide access only at particular times of
the day‚ if desired. It also includes an integrated calendar clock that ena-
bles the programming of different access settings for different times of
the day or week‚ or for holidays.
The DC800 is intended for standalone use but it can also be connected
to a SiPass Entro system if required‚ without any hardware redundancy.
This is useful if a common point of administration is needed or if there
is a requirement for more advanced access control features.
